Abhishek Sharma failed in all three matches in Zimbabwe after poor outings on the England tour, and now former Indian chief selector Kris Srikkanth believes that the current selection panel and the team management may have to take a tough decision. However, Suryakumar Yadav backs Abhishek Sharma after the poor Zimbabwe series.
Earlier, the left-handed batter scored 131 runs in the five-match T20I series against England. Yet, he got regular chances but could not make any impact. Abhishek managed only 11 runs in three matches at an average of 3.66 and a strike rate of 55 in the Zimbabwe series.
Kris Srikkanth feels bowlers have worked out Abhishek Sharma
Kris Srikkanth said in a video posted on his YouTube channel: “Abhishek Sharma has been sorted out (by opponents) in international cricket, right from the World Cup. I think a tough call has to be taken against him now. I feel Sanju will get his chance again now. He will receive a call back 100%. The selectors will have to take a tough call.”
Kris Srikkanth hails Mayank Yadav after stunning Zimbabwe series
However, the 1983 World Cup winner was full of praise for the fast bowler Mayank Yadav. The 24-year-old made an impressive comeback after being out of the national setup nearly two years because of injuries. Mayank bowled with good pace and control throughout the series.
Mayank ended the Zimbabwe series as the highest wicket-taker. He picked up five wickets in three matches, including 3/29 in the final T20I at an average of 14.40 and an economy rate of 6.54.
The former Indian captain signed off by saying, “It was good to see Mayank Yadav playing all three games. So happy for him. Look at how consistent this boy was. The Indian future is very good. You have to back the right youngsters. I don't mind Ashok Sharma either.”
